Boston Red Sox podcast on MVN Radio, Episode #59 where we write off the Rays, the hopes of the division, and Jonathan Papelbon’s long term future in Boston

Episode #59
Hosts: Paul Testa, Tim Daloisio
Guests: None

The Red Sox got the two out of three wins in Tampa that we talked about last episode, and proceeded to meet doom in Chicago at the hands of “the Revenge of Kotsay”. Net/net, the Rangers are still in the wild card hunt and aren’t going anywhere. Paul and I break down the Red Sox castoffs and in season additions and give Theo and team a positive in season grade with this team built for the post-season (should they get there). All that just primes us for the big finish, where Paul nearly convinces me that trading Jonathan Papelbon in the offseason is the right thing for the franchise in a “Seymour-esque” way.

All that and more on Episode #59 of Fireside Chats on MVN!
